The Hollywood Reporter also provided some additional context for the new season, which is named for the bump in crime that happens between Christmas and New Year’s Day.

That weeklong span will be the backdrop for the new season. As THR reports, writer Stephen Glover (and brother of the show’s creator and star, Donald Glover) told the Television Critics Association in January, “Our characters are going through insane, desperate transitions, so ‘Robbin’ Season’ is kind of a metaphor for all of our characters.”

The trailer itself doesn’t give much away but gives viewers a brief moment to reconnect with their faves. Lakeith Stanfield, who plays the show’s perennial right-hand man, Darius, also offers this hint of what’s to come:

“Robbin’ season,” Stanfield says as sirens wail in the background. “Everybody gotta eat.”

The new season of Atlanta debuts March 1.
